Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I received your note at my talk page.
The kind of deletion proposed here is what we call a "
PROD". If you disagree with the deletion rationale, you can just remove the {{
dated prod}}
notice (you'll see it in the edit window), and it will not be deleted for that reason.
However, a bigger problem is that you have copied this content from somewhere else. We regretfully cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from either web sites or printed material. This article appears to be a copy from http://www.obahahc.lk/AboutHAH.html, and therefore a copyright violation. The copyrighted text has been or will soon be deleted. While we appreciate contributions, we must require all contributors to understand and comply with our copyright policy. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators are liable to be blocked from editing.
If you believe that the article is not a copyright violation, or if you have permission from the copyright holder to release the content freely under license allowed by Wikipedia, then you should do one of the following:
It may also be necessary for the text be modified to have an encyclopedic tone and to follow Wikipedia article layout. For more information on Wikipedia's policies, see Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
If you would like to begin working on new text for this article, you may do so. You should consider reviewing your first article and adding additional reliable sources to the rewritten article to help demonstrate that it is notable to alleviate the concerns of the person who has "PROD" nominated it.
Thank you, and please feel welcome to continue contributing to Wikipedia. Happy editing! -- Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:25, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Hello, I'm
Obi2canibe. I noticed that you made a change to an article,
List of the oldest schools in Sri Lanka, but you didn't provide a
reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to
include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the
referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on
my talk page. Thank you.
